New Contributing Expert: Victor Comras
By Andrew Cochran
I am pleased to announce that Victor Comras, Esq., is joining the blog as a Contributing Expert. Mr. Comras led the U.S. State Department's foreign policy trade control and sanctions programs for nearly a decade, and he developed the international sanctions program aimed bringing down the Slobodan Milosevic regime. He also served as the State Departments point-man on sanctions related to Iraq, Iran, Libya, Haiti, Cuba, and North Korea and other crisis areas. After retiring from the State Department in 2001, he was appointed by the U.N. to serve as one of five monitors charged with overseeing the implementation of its measures taken against al Qaeda and the Taliban (see Doug Farah's positive post about that effort). Mr. Comras is now a practicing attorney and consultant on regulatory matters related to homeland and national security issues, including immigration; money laundering controls; and foreign political risk assessment. His articles and commentaries have appeared in numerous media outlets.
